Happy in Bb by Johnny Stimson
So many stories to share. So little time. Just kidding. I have time. Lucky for all!
These last couple of weeks have been amazing. Summer has certainly gone out with a bang, pop, kaBOOM.
Just good, solid, hilarious fun with friends. Mix that with shopping, coffee, possibly illegal stargazing*, and Indian accents and you've got a happy Allyson. Expectations finally became reality for summer.
I move to Chicago in 2 days. I'm pretty sure. Maybe three. We'll see.
I got this new beast of a smartphone... the HTC Evo. I like it, but I have probably utilized 5% of it's functions so far. So much technology. I just synced my iCal with my Google Calender which syncs with my phone calender. I can't even begin to comprehend... Anyway, it's weird having a nice phone. I mean, I can't drop it down three flights of stairs and know that it'll still be okay. #woes
Okay, a new work story. This one is a personal favorite.
It was a long long night, and my first time having the whole bar to myself the whole night. There were a few guys rather aggressive in trying to get me to dance, and I would politely respond with a "Sorry, I can't!" But this one guy, oh gosh. He would not leave his seat at the bar for hoours. Cooonstantly urging me to dance. I was polite for a long time, because he was a nice guy... he really was. But finally I had to start ignoring him completely, because, well... I was working, and frankly he was becoming a pain in the butt. Finally when he asked what I liked dancing to I said "Mozart." to shut him up.
FIVE MINUTES LATER THE DJ WAS PLAYING A MOZART SYMPHONY.
He got the dj to download freaking Mozart.
Face. Palm.
The dance floor was empty while this symphony was blasted in it's entirety. Just "for me."
The next song he grabbed a microphone and sang a love song to me.
Long. Long. Long. Night.
Okay. Must pack. Updates soon, hope all your moves/transitions are going smoothly. Thinking of you all. :]
Clever Lyrics of the Day: "All black kettles and black pots seem to fight an awful lot, and make the kitchen the most uncomfortable of rooms."
*All the parks were closed, but my friend took me to this isolated baseball field (because he's a pitcher and we both love love baseball) surrounded by woods. It was picture perfect and SO MUCH FUN, but I think I stopped breathing every time I hear a car passing in the distance.
1.) SO JEALOUS OF YOUR BARTENDING JOB! I totally wish I could be a bartender. I just feel like it would be totally hilarious and fun most of the time.
ReplyDelete2.) OMG, possibly illegal stargazing is fun. My friends and I went to watch the meteor shower earlier this summer, and the friend who organized it took us to some random persons hay field, and every time I saw a cars headlights through the trees, or the lights in a house, I thought it was someone coming to get us.
I'm glad you're having a good summer now! And I hope you have fun in Chicago!
OMG I can't believe they actually played Mozart. That's crazy. It seems hilariously fun, though probably annoying with all those crazy guys.
ReplyDeleteYay have fun in Chicago! :D
Can we say thirsty? That's pretty ballsy of him. Or not considering he was probably drunk. Sometimes liquid courage is NOT needed.
ReplyDeleteThat. Is. Brilliant. Awful but so brilliant. Allyson, he really loved you. You totally should have gone after him.
ReplyDeleteOkay I'm kidding. But that is so funny! I wish my summer was fun :( Unfortunately it was probably one of the most boring summers since middle school. Gah.
Anyway. Good luck in Chicago! That is so exciting!
Oh my gosh, that's hilarious about Mozart. XD Possibly illegal star-gazing sounds fun. I get to look at the stars sometimes when I go running after dark, but living in a city there's not actually that much to see.
